07_JUD_10_11 And the LORD said unto the children of Israel, [ did] not [ I deliver you] from the Egyptians, And from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, And from the Philistines?
07_JUD_10_12 the Zidonians also, And the Amalekites, And the Maonites, did oppress you; And ye cried to me, And I delivered you out of their hand.
